Summary/Abstract: Buryła discusses how fascism relates to the concept of masculinity in popular and stereotypical representations of fascism and of the Nazi torturer. He also analyses the ways in which the executioner is erotized in film and literature. Finally, he explores the sources and dimensions of the Nazis’ fascination with masculinity – a fascination that led to the male’s dominant position in Hitler’s ideology.
